I didn't get to hear the whole thing yet today, but the Diane Rehm show on NPR had Richard Gere as the guest talking about Buddhism, the Dalai Lama, etc. The beginning part I got to hear in the car was interesting. The audio is available to listen to online (but apparently not to download and save).
